Since You Went Away

Without the trace of our love being left here, no memory from the past can ever 
cover the road that we once traveled,  No day can ever compare to the mist in the 
morning when the fog would surround the window that we one as a couple, 
would look beyond, something that our future would hold.


When the night comes and the stars seem to shine on me, the glare of my face 
should tell you that I miss you, your kiss, your touch, and those arms that would 
hold me at night. When there is no more left of me, no more tears that can be 
cried I will once think of you, and how you wiped my eyes.


There will be no worry’s that I have to dream about, there will be no more joy in 
my life that was mistaken as a happen moment, nor a reminisce to your love. 
Under the dirt of the ground will you find my heart, will you find my soul pouring 
out to you, begging you for forgiveness. My weakness is no longer a distance 
from here.  

Just a moment’s time can you image when I will come back to that place where 
no only us but the spirits of will remind us of what we shared, the pictures that sit 
upon the shelf that we built together; hand in hand, side by side. 

Since the day looked past that road where burned bridges were left behind, I no 
longer linger the sound of being there before. To me I will look at it as a memory 
from the past. A moment of that day. The love we had together. Since you went 
away.
